Wave Washover at Cirkewwa South Pier

Water running off the south pier of the Cirkewwa ferry terminal after a large storm wave washed over it.

During gale force winds in northern Malta, a powerful Mediterranean wave crashes over the south pier of the Cirkewwa ferry terminal. As the surge retreats, water pours back off the pier and into the sea. The image captures the dynamic moment after a storm wave has washed across the structure, illustrating the raw energy of rough weather along Malta’s exposed coastline.
